mourning.....



All kinds of mourning are there.....

yet some stand apart, for deeper resonances, heavier burdens that are signified thereby..... here is a composition (only favorited and hence shared, no copyright violation intended) for the readers, for more reasons than one......




Seal my thoughts with a single lick on the envelope


Smell my breath as you uncloak my feelings


Hold it close to you, feel the weight on your chest


Flickering, that candlelight awaits.


Cast a shadow of your pen on paper


Or let the blood turn to vapour and soot


Hold it close to you, feel the weight on your chest


Let that decide who's the bearer - uncouth


The loss of the unborn is not mine alone to bear


The few pounds and decimals - unaware


Hold it close to you, feel the weight on your chest


Hold it close to you, for whom you couldn't hold at all!


Hold on!


Care!
